Big Jack Kerouac had a breakdown at Big Sur.
They made a doco about it, his words
tumbling over the cinema seats
read richly, professionally.
In between Big Sur nature footage, lush
and green or blue, depending, shallow
waters of comment - 'It was so human!'
'Oh, I cried for his cat ...'
These people have names often in lights,
these people have egos larger
than their overdrafts, but
please, save Jack from
their deibilitating praise.
